Qi Lu put his mind at ease, he didn't have to worry about the monster running away, he bent down and just wanted to enter the cave, when he saw a gust of yin wind blowing out inside, followed by a cold light shooting straight towards the two of them.

Qi Lu deftly dodged this cold light, and jumped into the cave with a single arrow step. Lao Wu hurriedly turned on the flashlight and followed him into the cave.

After walking for more than ten meters, and then turning to the left, before Lao Wu's flashlight could shine forward, Qi Lu felt that there was a black shadow flashing in front of him, and he hurriedly hit it with a spirit rune, and Lao Wu cooperated to block the retreat behind to prevent the monster from escaping.

Another familiar cold light flashed, and Qi Lu found that the spirit rune he threw was as silent as a mud cow entering the sea. Just when he was surprised that this little demon actually had the ability to break his spirit rune, countless cold lights had flashed in the darkness, and Qi Lu and Lao Wu hurriedly moved their bodies to avoid the sudden life-killing light.

The cold in the cave was getting heavier and heavier, and Qi Lu felt like he had fallen into an ice cellar. He touched into his arms, about to take out a few more spirit runes to deal with the monster, but was surprised to find that his palms were full of ice water, and then he saw that his coat was soaked.

Suddenly, Qi Lu's eyes lit up, he straightened up and shouted to the cave: "Don't play hide and seek with me, I know who you are!" ”

The cave suddenly fell silent, and the youkai stopped attacking.

Qi Lu grinned and said: "Say I'm cunning, I think you are a fox who doesn't change, and you are cunning to the extreme, and you actually found this cave as a hiding place." ”

Lao Wu asked in surprise: "Who is he?" ”

Qi Lu shouted loudly into the cave: "Hu Yu, still refuse to meet me?" ”

"Sure enough, it's a soul master who has solved countless supernatural cases, it seems that I can't hide this little trick from you."

The cave was full of light, and Hu Yu walked out of the light, holding a sparkling night pearl in his hand. He came to a place about two meters away from Qi Lu and stopped, holding the snow-white long sword he had snatched from Hu Yuxuan's hand in his right hand.

"Did you recognize me from this sword?"

"Yes." Qi Lu said: "But I didn't expect you to be reduced to stealing chickens for food." ”

Hu Yu said coldly: "I have become a wanted criminal of the whole clan, can I go to a restaurant to eat with a swagger?" I'm afraid that before the food reaches my mouth, it will be discovered by the secret agents of the fox clan. ”

"You're smart indeed." Qi Lu nodded and praised: "There are secret agents in the bustling city, and there are clansmen in the deep mountains and old forests who are your cultivators, and those places are not safe." It was only in this remote village, at the junction of urban and rural areas, that the Semitic people let their guard down. You are still afraid that you will not be safe, and you deliberately turn into a weasel to steal chickens, even if someone finds out about your whereabouts, they will not suspect you. ”

Hu Yu didn't make a sound, and put his sword across his chest.

Qi Lu smiled and said, "Do you still want to fight with me?" Now that there is not only me in the cave, but also my assistant, you can't beat me. ”

"So you want to take me back and go to that guy surnamed Hu to ask for a reward?"

"There is a plan, but it depends on how you cooperate." Qi Lu's face suddenly turned cold.

"You want to kill me?" Hu Yu's eyes couldn't help but constrict, and he was busy secretly pinching the trick, preparing to fight to break the net.

"As long as you tell me everything I know, I won't meet you today, and I'll give you all the chickens of Ding Meinu's family."

"It's as simple as that?" Hu Yu saw Qi Lu's tone and became gentle in a blink of an eye, a little unable to believe his eyes. But he saw Qi Lu nodding affirmatively to himself, so he asked tentatively, "What do you want to know?" ”

"You said that Hu Qingyun was mentally ill and framed by Hu Yuxuan, is there any evidence?"

"Nope." Hu Yu shook his head and said, "If there was evidence, I would have stabbed this matter at the elders' meeting a long time ago, do I still need to hide in Tibet?" ”

Qi Lu said coldly: "Then you are framing Hu Yuxuan." ”

"No, it's something I've deduced from what I've seen with my own eyes."

It was just a moment of hesitation, and Hu Yu opened the conversation.

"Hu Yuxuan is a tame and well-behaved child in the eyes of his elders, but I don't see it that way when I have been cultivating with him since I was a child. Our master is an antique and believes in Buddhism, so he is also strict with us disciples and does not allow us to kill. Hu Yu said with a little hatred: "You know that the fox clan originally likes to eat it, and sometimes when the cultivation is boring, we senior brothers will meet to go to the back mountain to catch a few birds and beasts to fight tooth sacrifices." But Hu Yuxuan is different, he never eats in front of us and the master. Sometimes the master also saw him taking care of the injured little beast, so he naturally favored him extraordinarily. ”

Qi Lu thought to himself, it turns out that your jealousy is making trouble, and you can't see that your classmates are better than you! He was about to refute a few words, but Hu Yu's next words surprised Qi Lu.

Everyone praised him for his kindness, but he was pretending to do everything. He caught the wounded beasts in the mountains, and brought them back to the cave to heal them in front of everyone. When the prey was healed, he told everyone to release them into the forest. ”

Qi Lu said: "Even if he is a little expressive, this is a good deed." ”

Hu Yu scolded: "Good fart, the beasts are all deliberately broken legs and then cured of them, and then find a place where no one is there to roast and eat alone, and hypocritically told us that they have been released into the mountains and forests." If I hadn't gone outside the cave one night to absorb some Taihua, and accidentally found him burying leftover animal bones in the trees, I would have been blinded by him. ”

Qi Lu's heart sank when he heard this, but he didn't expect Hu Yuxuan to be very scheming since he was a child, but at the same time, he was also guessing whether this was a story maliciously made up by Hu Yu.

"When we have achievements in cultivation, we often form teams together to complete the tasks assigned by the clan. Once, he and I were ordered by the patriarch to hunt down a thousand-year-old snake demon that killed my people, and after we killed this snake demon, we saw that its stomach was cracked, and several small snakes crawled out of it, and we immediately knew that this was the widow of the snake demon. I wanted to let go of these innocent little snakes, but Hu Yuxuan didn't want to use this sword to kill the little snakes to the fullest. After speaking, Hu Yu also deliberately raised the snow-white long sword in his hand to Qi Lu to emphasize the facts he said.

Hu Yu said again: "I was stunned at the time, and asked him why he would not let go of his young son." Hu Yuxuan said that raising tigers is a problem, and if we don't cut them down and eradicate them today, he will definitely seek revenge on us after he cultivates to achieve positive results. Hu Yu paused for a moment and said: "After experiencing this incident, I completely saw through his hypocritical face, and consciously parted ways with him, so as not to be stabbed in the back by him." ”

The more Qi Lu listened, the more shocked he became, unable to determine whether Hu Yu's words were true, he asked in a skeptical tone: "You said so much, just to show that Hu Yuxuan is not a loyal person, but what does this have to do with Hu Qingyun?" ”

"Because Senior Hu is a stumbling block on his way forward." Hu Yu said in a cold voice: "The great achievements made by Hu's predecessors for the Semitic clan are obvious to all. Hu Yuxuan didn't have any credit at all, relying on his father being the patriarch, he wanted to conspire to seize the position of patriarch, and then change the long-term recommendation system in the clan to a hereditary system, so that the Semitic tribe would completely become his family. ”

Qi Lu asked: "Then do you have evidence that Hu Yuxuan's position as patriarch was not obtained above board?" ”

"Didn't you investigate the cause of the death of your clan elder Hu Shoucai?" Hu Yu said: "After the death of the old patriarch, Hu Yuxuan went around to buy people's hearts. Once I went to look for Hu Shoucai, but I saw Hu Yuxuan coming out of his house angrily. After he left, I asked Hu Shoucai what was going on, and Hu Shoucai told me that Hu Yuxuan persuaded Hu Shoucai to vote for him at the elders' meeting at the price of ten spars, and promised to give him more benefits after becoming the patriarch. Hu Shoucai did not agree, so Hu Yuxuan threatened him. ”

Hu Yu took a breath and continued: "Since then, I have kept an eye on Hu Yuxuan and secretly followed Hu Yuxuan and his subordinates, and found that he had bribed many elders on a large scale, either promising him a position or promising him benefits. As a result, after many elders were bribed, they transferred the votes originally cast for Hu's seniors to Hu Yuxuan. This kid became the patriarch completely by bribery, and there is no glory at all. ”

Qi Lu said: "Even if what you say is true, what I wonder is, what does Hu Qingyun's defeat have to do with you, so that you don't care about your life to stand up for him?" ”

"Senior Hu had a life-saving grace for me in his early years, and I should find an opportunity to repay him. At the same time, I can't bear to let my clan fall at the hands of Hu Yuxuan. ”

"The reason is high-sounding, do you have conclusive evidence?"

"No, if there were, this kid would have fallen a long time ago!" Hu Yu said through gritted teeth.

"How can you convince the public without evidence that you think you can solve the problem alone? Evidence must be used in everything, and reality cannot be changed by one's own ears and ears alone. ”

"So I told Mr. Qi all this today, and I hope you can administer justice for me." Hu Yu sighed: "I can't live long, instead of sitting and waiting to die, it's better to strike first, the big deal is that the fish will die and the net will be broken." ”

Qi Lu sighed: "Mr. Hu, your personality is too impatient. ”

"Can I not be in a hurry? Hold off and I'll die at his hands! Hu Yu said excitedly: "Aren't you investigating the series of murders of our fox clan?" Those people were all killed by Hu Yuxuan, and Senior Hu was also driven crazy by him after poisoning! ”

Qi Lu's heart tightened when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked, "You said they all died at the hands of Hu Yuxuan?" ”

"Hmph, these people are all the people who opposed Hu Yuxuan as the patriarch at the original elders' meeting, and after Hu Yuxuan became the patriarch, he naturally wanted to eliminate these elders who did not obey his orders."

This is an important clue, that is, I don't know if what Hu Yu said is true, but I can readjust the direction of the investigation from the aspect. Just as Qi Lu was pondering, he suddenly felt that there was a demonic aura behind him!

Oops, Ding Xiaolan was still sentry outside the cave, and Qi Lu suddenly realized the seriousness of the situation.

"Someone is eavesdropping." Lao Wu also sensed this demonic aura.

Qi Lu didn't say a word, turned around and ran towards the outside of the cave, and Lao Wu also followed.

The two went out of the cave, but saw Ding Xiaolan sitting bored on a big stone in a daze, and stood up embarrassedly when they saw Qi Lu coming out.

"You don't see youkai?" Qi Lu was surprised.

"No, nothing happened here." As soon as he finished speaking, Ding Xiaolan saw Hu Yu who followed him out of the hole, and immediately screamed: "He's a monster!" ”

"Alas!" Qi Lu shook his head helplessly, feeling more and more regretful in his heart for letting Ding Xiaolan come to work in the office.

At this time, a nearby pine tree suddenly rose automatically without wind, and Qi Lu suddenly looked at the big tree vigilantly.

"It turned out that he was hiding in a tree." Lao Wu sneered, his body rose into the air, and the short knife in his hand stabbed straight at the black shadow hidden in the tree.

The black shadow was extremely fast, and before Lao Wu could get close to him, the black shadow landed safely under the tree, and then fled in the direction of the village entrance.

Qi Lu saw that the black shadow looked very much like the killer who killed Hu Ning and the other three fox demons, and he was also careless, so he hurriedly chased in the direction of the black shadow's escape.

Hu Yu followed Qi Lu with his sword, ready to help him.

"You stay with Xiao Ding, don't risk yourself." The black shadow was extremely fast, seeing that he was a master, Hu Yu's mana was not good, Qi Lu didn't want him to have any accidents when he was arresting the murderer. In the future, if you want to balance Hu Yuxuan, he is an important witness.

Hu Yu returned to the entrance of the cave and stood with Ding Xiaolan, waiting for the good news from Qi Lu.
